Sausage & Egg Breakfast Bake | PALEO, Whole30, Keto

Servings: 8
Calories: 278kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork breakfast sausage*
  • 1 cup baby spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup kale, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 12 eggs
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk or almond milk*
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp minced garlic
  • cooking fat, for greasing

Optional: green onions (sliced), sun dried tomatoes (julienned), cooked bacon (chopped)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
  • In a large skillet, cook the pork breakfast sausage over medium-high heat until browned.  Add the spinach, kale, and bell pepper, and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes to slightly soften the vegetables.  Stir in any optional mix-ins you like.
  • Coat a large baking dish (mine was 9" x 12") with cooking fat, and pour the sausage and vegetable mixture in, spreading it evenly along the bottom.
  • Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic in a bowl, and pour the egg mixture over the meat and veggies.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes, or until eggs are set & a toothpick comes out clean.

Slow Cooker: Follow the same steps using your slow cooker. Prepare the night before & cook on low for 7-8 hours, or high for 4 hours (until eggs are set).

    Egg Muffins: Follow the same steps using a muffin tin (you made need more than one muffin tin). Fill each greased cup with sausage & veggies, then pour egg mixture over top. Bake at 350ºF for 25 minutes (until eggs are set).

      Notes

      *If you're making this on a Whole30, double check your sausage & dairy-free milk for no added sugar or other fillers/preservatives.  I used the pork breakfast sausage from Butcher Box, and canned "light" coconut milk.
